I think a lot of people just use the stock lines, but if you don't have access to those, I'd recommend going with a stainless line of some sort wrapped with the stainless coil to keep rocks from puncturing the lines.
I wanted some newer lines to go on my 12-bolt, so I sent my stock lines in to Class Tube and had them remake them from the ground up. They made an exact match out of stainless line, wrapped in stainless coil, and with the proper fittings...it was great work.
So you can always fab some up in a soft, mild steel, send them to Classic Tube, and they can make the exact same bends only in a nicer material for you. Just a thought...

...you do have to be able to handle some downtime with your car though. It took them about 2 months to get enough time to work my order in to their system. They are very busy people, and my guess is because the quality of the work is so good. If you've looked at how complex the bends of the rear brake lines are, you'd know that it was no easy task to duplicate.
